The Banco Nacional de Chile was one of several private issuing banks operating under Chile's 1860 banking law, which permitted chartered institutions to issue their own notes backed by metallic reserves. The outbreak of the War of the Pacific in April 1879 changed everything — the Chilean government suspended convertibility that same year, forcing all private bank notes into inconvertible status almost immediately after this series entered circulation.
American Bank Note Company produced the plates in New York, as they did for most Chilean private bank paper of this period. ABNC's grip on South American note printing during the 1870s was near-total.
